The D50 is a fine bit of kit provided you use good glass.

It certainly has some good reviews as a beginners DSLR.
It's the one i am seriously giving some consideration to buying. |

If I was recommending a beginner's DSLR then it'd get my vote too.

Barbra I think that the canon is excellent but for some people the Nikon is better,if you go to www.dpreview I think there may be a comparison check
I bought the Nikon D70 because it had everything ,and filled my hands comfortably,the feel is quality,the spec on the canon is good but for me it has a cheap plasticky feel,the 20d at the time was much more expensive by a couple of hundred
see http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikond50/page19.asp

Another camera to check out is the Olympus E500 twin lens kit which is excellent value, gets good reviews and you don't need to worry about cleaning your cameras sensor.
